Magnesium Sterndrive Anodes

Sterndrives are relatively easy to install and maintain, which makes them a good choice for both recreational boaters and professionals. Furthermore, sterndrives are more efficient than outboard motors, resulting in better fuel economy and more power. 

Keep your sterndrive protected with our excellent range of magnesium sterndrive anodes, suitable for use in fresh water as there is a lower open circuit potential. Unlike zinc sterndrive anodes and aluminium sterndrive anodes, magnesium anodes react rapidly when exposed to seawater, which is why they should only be used in fresh water.
